Objective. Conduct a comparative assessment of the frequency and spectrum antimicrobial resistance Mycobacterium avium isolated from patients phthisiopulmonology clinic in pre-Covid period (2018–2019) during COVID-19 pandemic (2020–2023). Materials Methods. The sensitivity M. isolates was determined to 8 drugs: amikacin, clarithromycin, linezolid, moxifloxacin, ciprofloxacin, doxycycline, rifabutin, rifampicin. Drug susceptibility testing performed using serial broth microdilution method according published CLSI guidelines, M24S, 2023. Interpretation results, classifying into one three categories: sensitive, intermediate, resistant, carried out based on comparison values minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) drugs with breakpoint these parameters complex breakpoints were used for moxifloxacin. For rifampicin, other slow-growing non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) (M. kansasii marinum) rules section 2023 “Non-species related breakpoints”. Results. A analysis (2018– 2019) (2020–2023) showed an increase proportion resistant clarithromycin (from 1.1% 20.1%, p < 0.0001), moxifloxacin 11.0% 29.2%, = 0.0007) intermediate drug 5.6% 17.6%, 0.0080) pandemic. opposite trend is noteworthy – sensitive amikacin 55.5% 79.6%, 0.0001) decrease 36% 4.4%, 0.0001). In addition, there ciprofloxacin 18.8% 9.7%, 0.0288) linezolid 27.7% 17.2%, 0.039). Conclusions. data obtained this work occurrence main reserve antimicrobials requires search new that are effective against infection caused by avium. It necessary expand MIC existing develop reasonable criterion establishing clinical categories resistance, as well revise recommendations group tested NTM determine treatment regimens.

Antibiotic resistance is a global environmental and health threat. Approximately 4.95 million deaths were associated with antibiotic in 2019, including 1.27 that directly attributable to bacterial antimicrobial resistance. Hospital wastewater one of the key sources for spread clinically relevant genes (ARGs) into environment. Understanding current situation ARGs hospital great significance. Here, we review prevalence antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) from other places treatment methods used. We further discuss intersection between COVID-19 during pandemic. This highlights issues dissemination critical It imperative implement more effective processes eliminate ARGs, particularly long period.

Background: Antimicrobial consumption (AMC) patterns, besides prescribing behaviors, reflect the changing epidemiology of infectious diseases. Routine surveillance data have been used to investigate development AMC from 2017 2023 and impact COVID-19 within context framing time periods. Methods: Data 112 hospitals, continuously participating in national system hospital antimicrobial based at Robert Koch Institute, were analyzed according WHO ATC (Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical)/DDD (Defined Daily Dose) method categorized AWaRe-classification. was quantified by density (CD) expressed DDD/100 patient days (PD) admissions (AD). The period subdivided into three phases: pre-pandemic phase (2017–2019), main pandemic (2020–2021) transition (2022–2023). Linear regression models determine presence an overall trend, change intra-phasic trends phase-specific mean levels over time. Results: From total antibiotic decreased 7% 57.1 52.9 PD. Four kinetic patterns emerged across different classes: Pattern 1 displays a decreasing which slowed down throughout exhibited second-generation cephalosporins fluoroquinolones. 2 reveals rising decelerated accelerated again aminopenicillins/beta-lactamase inhibitors, beta-lactamase sensitive pencillins, azithromycin first-generation cephalosporins. 3 shows elevated carbapenems, glycopeptides, linezolid third-generation 4 trend phase, reversed without achieving resistant penicillins, daptomycin, fosfomycin (parenteral) ceftazidime/avibactam. Conclusions: Kinetic classes might COVID-19-related effects associated changes co-circulating pathogens health care supply. Broad-spectrum antibiotics with persisting require special attention focused stewardship activities.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic in Romania exacerbated pediatric antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Overuse of broad-spectrum antibiotics may be related to increased multidrug-resistant bacteria. main aim this study was assess AMR trends and phenotypes, while a secondary objective investigate the potential links with hospital abandonment. Methods: This retrospective from Children’s Emergency Hospital “Louis Țurcanu”, Timișoara, focused on patterns 2019 pre-pandemic, 2021 pandemic, 2023 post-pandemic. following phenotypes were assessed: MRSA, MRCoNS, VRE, ESBL, CRO, MDR, XDR, PDR. Results: There 3530 total patients 6885 samples. 69.92% samples resistant at least one class, (72.69% 2019, 67.05% 2021, 69.16% 2023). Specifically, towards penicillins remained high across entire period (57.45–60.93%), classes presented elevated pandemic: cephalosporins (42.91%), combination therapies (40.95%), reserve (38.89%), cyclines (13.83%). As for MRSA MRCoNS peaked during (36.08% 81.43%, respectively) VRE relatively constant. Overall ESBL declined 14.45%, overall CRO (8.81%). MDR fell (64.47%), XDR (9.87%). No PDR cases observed. Pediatric abandonment an increasing concern, regional rising 5.42% (2019) 9.83% (2023). Compared general population, abandoned observed fluoroquinolones (50.00%), Aminogycolsides (60.00%), (70.00%), urinary (60.00%). Resistance (OR = 5.17, p 0.0304) 5.64, 0.0049) key predictors risk. Conclusions: influenced trends, notable peaks CRO. Post-pandemic suggest continued escalation resistance. association between infections highlights need robust stewardship social intervention policies.

Evidence from public health bodies describes extensive overuse of antibiotics during the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide, further worsening spread antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Umbrella review (CRD42024590181) SRs that investigated safety and efficacy antibiotic drug therapies for treatment in patients irrespective disease severity age was conducted. Comprehensive searches were conducted between July 30, 2024, October 26, covering PubMed Cochrane databases, other sources, such as, Coronavirus (COVID-19) resources, Google Scholar. The AMSTAR2 tool used to assess methodological quality included SRs. Review findings synthesized narratively. systematic search yielded a total 3624 records electronic databases search. Ten original SRs, with 1-42 studies each SR, finally included. Sample size per SR ranged 665-37,429 patients. Azithromycin most commonly administered therapy. Overall, this reported no difference all-cause mortality, time clinical recovery, length hospital stay, progression severe disease, viral clearance, rate co-infections or superinfections, adverse events among treated compared placebo/standard care. suggests use is not associated better outcomes. Further assessing prevalence AMR usage infection could aid improving stewardship practice.

Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic Gram-negative bacterium in the Enterobacteriaceae family associated with a wide range of diseases, such as pneumonia, bloodstream infections, meningitis and urinary tract infections. Infections caused by drug-resistant strains pose significant threat to effectiveness conventional antibiotics. Hence, this has led need explore alternative antimicrobial therapies, especially natural products derived from plant sources. This study assessed phytochemical composition antibacterial properties performed molecular docking analysis Henna leaves (Lawsonia inermis L.) extracts on pneumoniae. Crude ethanol methanol L. were prepared at different concentrations (25, 50, 75 100 mg/mL) tested extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing Phytocompounds identified using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) further subjected virtual ligands screening DataWarrior (v05.02.01) AutoDock4.2 (v4.2.6). The active compounds determined analysis, including phytochemical, physicochemical, pharmacokinetics score. GC-MS 27 phytoconstituents, ethyl acetate, sclareol, 2-[1,2-dihydroxyethyl]-9-[β-d-ribofuranosyl] hypoxanthine, α-bisabolol 2-Isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexyl 3-(1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-oxobutyl)-coumarin-4-yl carbonate. then screened for their physicochemical pharmacokinetic properties. results revealed that mg/mL showed significantly higher (p < 0.05) zones inhibition (13.7 ± 1.2 mm), while 50 lower (6.3 0.6 mm) compared all other treatments. out identified, only twelve (12) have drug-likeness activity. 12 determine binding energies CTX-M protein Only one compound [CID_440869; (2-[1,2-dihydroxyethyl]-9-[β-d-ribofuranosyl] hypoxanthine)] had best energy −9.76 kcal/mol; hence, it can be considered potentially suitable treatment infections ESBLs-producing demonstrated effects. Further research could potential applications many bacterial strains.
